A Boston Opinion.

It is very sad to read of the wrath of the woman suffragists of New York over their defeat in the constitutional convention and of their announced determination to blacklist every delegate who voted against them. It seems to demonstrate anew that the women are unfit for the ups and downs of political strife.—Boston Herald
